Description

"... Some would argue that the church is in greater crisis today than when Charles Davis wrote his article in 1959. The signs seem obvious. Vocations are down. Many under forty are alienated. Many Catholics are remarried. Church teachings on abortation, contraception, and divorce are rejected. With the decline of Catholic schools and the greater impact of the media, the church finds it increasingly difficult to transmit its values to younger members. Pastoral staffs are burdened by all the changes and new programs. Who is going to carry on the church's mission?" The book addresses this and other issues.
